Things to Do after a Slip and Fall Injury in Calgary

Take the contact details of any eyewitnesses present in the vicinity of the accident. If possible, also take photographs of the area, covering any warning signs or their absence. Report the incident to building management or security and fill out an incident report and provide it. Visit a doctor and get a proper check-up. Even if you feel fine, it is better to follow the instructions that the doctor provides. The insurance company of the concerned party might reach out to you and may try to squeeze some statements that might make your case weak, avoid saying any such things.

Can I Sue for Slip and Fall in Calgary?

Slip and fall accidents are often the results of poorly maintained property. Slippery parking lots or walkways may also cause them during the long Calgary winters or by wet floors in establishments.

 


Alberta law enables individuals hurt in a slip-and-fall situation to pursue legal action against the person who caused their injury. You can do this by filing a tort claim and requesting significant compensation for damages, including pain and suffering, lost wages from employment, and demands for medical care. Stephens Holman Devraj’s experienced slip and fall lawyers can help maximize the compensation by helping represent a strong case.

Common Causes of Slip and Falls

While adverse weather conditions are one of the major causes of slips, there may be other causes, including:

  • Icy walkways, sidewalks, or stairs
  • Wet floors in restaurants or stores
  • Freshly mopped floors
  • Poorly built stairways
  • Potholes in sidewalks

Who Is Liable for a Slip and Fall Accident?

Typically, a claim may be lodged against the insurance company of the location where you slipped. This frequently occurs in business parking lots or on business property. However, you can also sue the property owner or the City in some cases.

 


We will use the concept of negligence to prove that the property or premises were not taken good care of by the person responsible, resulting in the accident.
